Taurus

April 21 to May 21

You like your routines, but today’s cosmic mix brings opportunities, perhaps quickly, and especially around career or public image. A fast-moving idea or conversation could challenge your usual way of doing things, but don’t dismiss it. But don’t see this as a threat. The world may zig when you want to zag, but going with the flow could open doors you didn’t know existed. Expect the unexpected and enjoy it, Taurus.

A relationship could take an unexpected turn, generating ideas that challenge your usual comfort zones. Friends or collaborators might surprise you with wild suggestions, but don’t dismiss them too quickly, as there’s wisdom hidden here.

A conversation with a partner, colleague or creative collaborator could veer wildly off script, but don’t panic.

Virgo

August 24 to September 23

Just when you thought you had your week neatly colour-coded and bullet-pointed, Mercury angles towards Uranus and tosses a wild idea or detour into your carefully planned schedule.

A surprising chat or insight could unlock a puzzle you’ve been pondering.

Libra

September 24 to October 23

A flash of brilliance could disrupt your usual rhythm, but in a good way. An unexpected shift in finances or shared resources might demand a quick decision. While you’re known for weighing every side, this event asks you to trust your gut and go with the flow. Dialogue could take an eccentric turn, revealing hidden truths or unspoken feelings. Keep your cool, stay charming and be ready to improvise.

Scorpio

October 24 to November 22

Today, home truths and relationship revelations may burst forth like lightning on a clear day. Something unexpected could shake your foundations, but it’s not here to destroy, it’s here to wake you up. A family member or partner might share something, or you could find yourself saying what’s long been bottled up. Stay cool and curious, not controlling. Flexibility is your best asset now.

Sagittarius

November 23 to December 21

An awkward line-up could turn your day into a wild brainstorm session, ready or not. An unexpected comment, message or piece of news might shake up your routine, but it also ignites ideas that are nothing short of genius. Just don’t rush into action without a second thought. Tech hiccups or schedule blips may test your patience, but they’re just nudges to think outside the box.

Capricorn

December 22 to January 20

Thinker Mercury’s angle to the edgy Uranus could shake up your best-laid plans just when you thought everything was nailed down. An unexpected idea, comment or event could jolt you into seeing things from a wildly different and refreshingly creative angle. Try not to dig your heels in, as flexibility is your secret power now. A surprise expense or tech mishap could arise, but it might lead to a smarter solution or even a long-overdue upgrade.

Aquarius

January 21 to February 19

Expect a lightning bolt of brilliance and maybe a little chaos too. Your mind is buzzing with possibilities, but your words might come out sideways or cause unexpected reactions, especially on the home front. Try not to bulldoze others with your big ideas, even if they are fantastic. An unexpected shift in plans may actually work best for you – especially if you’re open to an unusual workaround.

With Mercury stirring your intuitive depths and squaring off with wild-card Uranus, your thoughts may sparkle in brilliant but unpredictable ways.

A tech glitch or schedule shake-up might frustrate you but could redirect you towards a better path.
